It is impossible because it isn't that high.

Well, it is obvious.

Re: Check your mental age

Hmmm, they have miniature hippopotami do they not?Look how small this one is,

Is that actual size on the screen? Else I need a scale.

(ii) What is EQ anyway ? I haven't found the link. Is it at the end of the test? Because that means I'll have to do it again. Will I get the same answer? Depends if they're using a random number generator.

(iii) IQ: Most tests are very limited. They only measure certain skills and intelligence involves more than that. And they are always against the clock ... some of the world's most intelligent people take a long time to show their ability eg1. Stephen Hawking eg2. Andrew Wiles took 7 years to prove Fermat's last theorem.

(iv) And what is 'mental age' anyway? And as to why that set of questions will determine it ... well really!

EQ is empathy quotient.

Re: Check your mental age

OK, thanks.

I've tried the test again. I'm sure the questions are the same and I think I answered them the same. But my mental age seems to be growing. Now the test says 30 and if I go to the details screen it says 31. Wonder what that means.

I saw the EQ and IQ links just as I cleared the page so I've had to do the test for a third time. 'They' obviously think I'm in need of help because this time the details screen says

Ask a Psychiatrist Online psychiatrists.justanswer.co.uk A Psychiatrist Will Assist You Now!

So I asked "Do you think I need help then?"

They want £26 for the answer.

Anyone at MIF want to tell me for less?

Gosh. You mean that sometimes what appears on my screen is just an advert? What a clever idea. It's a wonderful thing, this internet.

The hippo is responsible for more human fatalities in Africa than any other large animal. Male hippos actively defend their territories which run along the banks of rivers and lakes. Females have also been known to get extremely aggressive if they sense anyone coming in between their babies, who stay in the water while she feeds on the shore. Hippos can run at speeds of over 20 miles an hour and they have enormous jaws which host up to 20 inch canines.

It is because I do not know where a tooth ends and I should increment the counter

Re: Check your mental age

Is it okay to say that I have 2 teeth: One up and One down because they do seem to be continious rather than discrete
